Replacing the factory fitted Zenon headlamps for halogen projectors

[dballard]

Hi,

My ZT (03) has factory fitted Zenon headlamps, the auto adjust on the N/S one is playing up. Question - as the Zenon lamps seem to be getting harder to obtain intact, can i just replace both with halogen projectors - if so what would be reqired in regards the wiring/bulb connectors

You may as well keep the xenon's and mend the auto adjustment it will be less work. It may only be a seized sensor arm which is an easy fix.

Xenons are a better headlight to imho.

MkI projectors are probably rarer than xenon's.

Hi Ed

Any idea where the instructions for that fix are on the forums

It may not be the issue with yours as the sensor affects both lamps:confused:

Thanks for the links capese21, bought that lamp, will pop off the bumper and and fit it then do a full inspection of the wireing and old lamp, maybe just wear on the adjusters or gears then, if i can fix it at least i will have a spare :)
